Safety of Neurostar TMS Therapy

Neurostar TMS Therapy is safe and easy to tolerate. Because it is not a depression drug, this therapy does not share the same side affects often associated with antidepressant medications.

The most common side effect reported during clinical trials was scalp discomfort—generally mild to moderate and occurring less frequently after the first week of treatment.

Fewer than 5% of patients discontinued treatment with NeuroStar TMS Therapy due to adverse events. Over 10,000 active treatments were performed across all NeuroStar® clinical trials demonstrating its safety.
